Origin will not download Battlefield DLC's Error: Certificates do not match! Dev: Cert check failed! Check Origin Build.

As the title says, Origin will not download my DLC's I just bought. It keeps throwing the "Dev: Cert check failed!" even if I keep pressing OK button. I tried to google this but I didn't get anything useful information from anywhere. If anyone else has this problem or has fixed it, please let me know. I can't be arsed to start yelling at EA.

  • I contacted the support and they told me to stop all processes until I had Windows related stuff left, then I had to remove all temp files in Windows folder and from another place (Windows Button + R --> type in %temp% and hit enter and delete all of the files)

    This worked for me so if you have the same problem you might want to try that.

    For me it simply helped to start Origin as the administrator. hope it will help you too 🙂

  • Hi Mike, glad you're taking the time to solve this problem.

    I didn't change anything within Origin settings. I did try reinstalling it, which didn't solve the problem. Giving the software admin rights appears to solve everything.

    Origin.exe - product version = 9,1,15,109

    OriginClient.dll - product version = 9,1,15,109

    OriginClientService.exe - product version = 9,0,0,677

    I am running Bitdefender but I did try disabling it which didn't change anything, the problem persists. My Windows user should have all admin rights. I am also running Windows 7 64 bit with service pack 1 which should be the latest one.

    Hello

    I had the same problem, one **bleep** window with the title "certificates do not match" ...

    I ran the shortcut Origin as adminstrador and ready, managed to install NFS Pro Street and end of alert boxes.

    Hope this solicione also your problem. = p

  • Hate to say it but neither of the suggestions here worked for me: run as administrator or emptying temp folder. This is quite annoying and frustrating.

    Tja, `versuche gerade mass effekt 3 zu spielen und habe dasselbe Problem. Auch die Anzeige : Dev: Cert check failed! Check Origin Build.....auch eine Anmeldung als Administaror hat das Problem nicht behoben. nach mehrmaligen Versuchen geht die origin-maske auf, das Spiel ist auch dort aber kann dann entgültig nicht gestertet werden und alles geht den Bach herunter. ......

    Ich bin zu tiefst frustriert und wäre für eine Rückmeldung auf [edit: email address removed] sehr sehr dankbar........
